Kicked off a kitchen & bath remodel project this weekend and the guy (kid) I've used in the past as a "gofer" has screwed up and lost his driver's license. So I figured it was worth a shot to post an ad on Craigslist this afternoon. Didn't leave it there long as I got 42 responces in less than an hour and while I view CL posting with a "grain of salt", you could almost feel a sense of desperation in many of these. Maybe the saddest was someone who was willing to drive close to 90 miles (each way) for a few days of work for not a lot of money. I'm no slave driver but for unskilled labor that requires more "brawn" than "brain", and the pay offered was certainly above the going rate.
Just another indicator to me that the economy is still in the bottom of the toilet....and I fear it's going to be there for a while...
